How many moles of sulfur will be needed to oxidize 3 moles of zinc to zinc sulfide

Chemistry

Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago
7 0

Answer : The number of moles of sulfur needed to oxidize will be, 3 moles

Solution : Given,

Moles of zinc = 3 moles

The balanced reaction will be,

Zn^{2+}+S^{2-}\rightarrow ZnS

By the stoichiometry, 1 mole of Zn^{2+} ion react with the 1 mole of S^{2-} to give 1 mole of zinc sulfide.

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of zinc react with 1 mole of sulfur

So, 3 moles if zinc react with 3 moles of sulfur

Hence, the number of moles of sulfur needed to oxidize will be, 3 moles

Maleic acid is an organic compound composed of 41.39% , 3.47% , and the rest oxygen. If 0.378 mole of maleic acid has a mass of
storchak [24]

Answer:

Empirical CHO

molecular C4H4O4

Explanation:

From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.

This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%

Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.

C = 41.39/12 = 3.45

O = 55.14/16 = 3.45

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.

Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO

Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.

To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.

Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g

Then 1 mole = xg

x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116

[CHO]n = 116

(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116

29n = 116

n = 116/29 = 4

The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4

In which of these samples do the atoms have the least kinetic energy? bromine gas (75°C) bromine gas (60°C) liquid bromine (45°C
horrorfan [7]
Gases have high kinetic energy: the molecules are moving much more than in a liquid or solid. You can cut out A and B. In the liquids, the difference is temperature. If a lower temperature is closer to being solid, and a solid has lower kinetic energy than a liquid, then C is the answer. Hope this helps.

Calcium hydride (cah2) reacts with water to form hydrogen gas: cah2(s) + 2h2o(l) → ca(oh)2(aq) + 2h2(g) how many grams of cah2 a
andreev551 [17]
Using the ideal gas law equation, we can find the number of H₂ moles produced.
PV = nRT
Where P - pressure - 0.811 atm x 101 325 Pa/atm = 82 175 Pa
V - volume - 58.0 x 10⁻³ m³
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 32 °C + 273 = 305 K
substituting these values in the equation,
82 175 Pa x 58.0 x 10⁻³ m³ = n x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 305 K
n = 1.88 mol 

The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
CaH₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) --> Ca(OH)₂(aq) + 2H₂(g)
stoichiometry of CaH₂ to H₂ is 1:2
When 1.88 mol of H₂ is formed , number of CaH₂ moles reacted = 1.88/2 mol
therefore number of CaH₂ moles reacted = 0.94 mol
Mass of CaH₂ reacted - 0.94 mol x 42 g/mol  = 39.48 g of CaH₂ are needed

hich of the followings decrease the affinity of adult Hb with O2? A. 2,3 BPG B. hydrogen ion C. CO2 D. Ferrous ion
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

A. 2,3 BPG

Explanation:

2,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG), otherwise known as 2,3-DPG, enables the transition of hemoglobin from a very high-oxygen-affinity state to a reduced-oxygen-affinity state.

Tissues hemoglobin oxygen affinity is reduced by numerous physiological factors including.

1. Temperature Increased,

2. Carbon dioxide,

3. Acid and

4. 2,3-Bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG)

all of which can contribute to decrease the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin which favours unloading and increased oxygen availability to our body cells.
